...Careful what you wish for...

Recommended Posts

The Grey Knight update has been confirmed and is under its final touches of production. Too late in the production for GW to hear our suggestions. All we can do is wish. But wish's can turn fickle...

 

You grant the wish in the post above but put in an evil twist.

 

E.g.

I wish the new codex has access to the new StormRaven gunship

 

Granted but only as a truely dedicated transport for your Inq Lord who alone is 300pts.

 

Here we go

 

"I wish for 2+ Armour Grey Knight troops"

Where was it confirmed? Was a release date mentioned (or at least release month?)

 

Edit to ask:

Is there more confirmation than the BoLS posting?

Yeah, I'm curious as to where that has been announced as well. Something like this would be sent through the GW mailing system and the last regular email I received on Sunday didn't have any 40K announcement relating to GK's/=][=.

 

If it's a rumour on a non-GW site then it's far from a done deal...

Checked my E-mail and no sign of a new GW mail... You sure you are right? Or has Harry joined DPA in saying GK next? Come on tell us how you know!

 

Also I wish for plastic GK and for GKT to not look different when plasticified (It may not be a word but I like it!)

Granted but Jumping Grey Knights must always roll on the deepstrike mishaps table upon entering the game and every turn that they remain in play.

 

I want to keep IST's and either give them boltguns or a hellgun that resembles the stats from of the IG hot-shot Lasgun.

nahhh Jump pack GK = too much like all the other chapters. We are unique (more so than the other chapters between themselves).

 

Have the IST with either of those weapons fuzbuckle then they will be much more expensive. Give them the option though and that will be awseome.

* Said it once and I'll say it again, I'm a 'lore whore'. Lotsa of in-depth immersive fluff and GK characters that will have every other army scared and freaked out. GKs deserve to have their icons too...

 

EDIT: Misread the game, put my *one wish in* - Agreed with the points from above though - GW let's avoid making this another space marine codex variation. Avoid the addition of other SM units where possible.

Folks, this is a forum game. That's all.

 

I wish for more heavy weapon options.

Granted, but they're only available on Dreadnoughts, who are also your HQ choices. No Grand masters remain, they all died.

 

I wish for Daemon hunters to have anti-daemon equipment that works against daemons!

I wish for Daemon hunters to have anti-daemon equipment that works against daemons!

Granted, but only against WFB Daemons.

 

I wish for a Grey Knights Chaplain!

 

But the GK chaplain only gets a Crozius Arcanum instead of a power-weapon'd NFW and the 'Honour of the Chapter' ability.

 

Re-riffing my previous post: I wish for some highly-decent GK characters.

Granted but they're so "decent" that they can only engage in gentlemanly duels and thus before engaging in combat, the controlling player must announce in a loud voice, "I demand satisfaction!" Once engaged in combat, they must lower any stat in their stat line that is greater than their opponents to equal their opponents in honor of gentlemanly fair play.

 

I wish for psychic attacks that can cripple vehicles and monsterous creatures while at the same time being immune to perils of the warp :D

Granted: But said powers only affect GK vehicles and make Monoliths appear out of nowhere

 

I wish for squads to be cheaper in points but still at a level befitting their eliteness

 

Done. Squads can now only consist of 1 PAGK or GKT at half price. FOC limits still apply.

 

I wish for GK jetbikes.

Granted. Jet Bikes may be purchased for +0 points per model and added on to each member in the squad of Grey Knights. Any troop choice using Jet Bikes are considered to be under the rule, "What the <expletive deleted>?" in which during each movement phase (both yours and opponent's) the controlling player must roll a dice for each biked Grey Knight. On a roll of anything other than a 6, each failed Grey Knight crashes and is killed as he fails to understand the technology (There is a reason Grey Knights footslog everywhere). Jet Bikes move at a base 6" while a Grey Knight is aboard and always roll as if in dangerous terrain as per the "Oh <expletive deleted>!" rule.

 

 

I wish that Ordo Malleus Inquisitor Lords get to keep their Table wide Psychic Hood.

I wish that Inquisitors are good enough to take on other IC's in combat

 

Granted you "Radical Only" Inq can be tooled with up to 500pts of wargear that makes a GM wince. And only able to take a retuine of 3 footslogging. Can we say vulnerable to any str6+ shooting =)

 

"I wish for Deamonhosts to have eternal warrior."

Granted, Daemonhosts now have eternal warrior, however they also now only have 1 wound.

 

I wish for an armywide teleport attack that functions similiar to drop pods: Half arrive first turn, reduce scatter if you would mishap, and troops have a 2 inch 'teleport disembark' move when landing to represent how the grey knights are so used to teleport attacks that they are not as disoriented as lesser troops and quickly able to assume combat formation. This option will cost a static 30 points per squad, and replaces the option to buy a dedicated transport.

Granted, this option is unlocked by purchasing a special character who costs 497 points (W3 S3 T3, 4+, 5++), and each squad so deployed yields 2 kill points.

 

I wish that Codex Sisters of Battle will be balanced, fun to play, and available within 6 months after they invalidate Codex : Witch Hunters with Codex : Inquisition.... Oh, never mind, those first two aren't reasonable, just the third will be fine!

I wish for 2+ Armour Grey Knight troops

 

Aye, you got to be careful with those wish :ph34r:

 

You know with everone putting a wish, I wish

- They make plastic GK spure

- Phil Kelly to be the Auther as I alway like his codex

- New terminators for Grey Knight

 

IP

granted, but the night fight rules get changed. Shrouding now means your units cannot see through the darkness and has to fight at initiative 1 and WS 1

 

I wish for more heavy weapon options.

 

I know this one has already been granted but it sounds fun to mess with.

 

Done, but they are autocannons, heavy mortars and multilasers!

 

I wish for Sisters of Battle to win more battles in fluff while still remaining holy and pure.
